ICE officers caught on video shoving a woman and separately shoving journalists

🔍 Key Facts

Video shows an ICE officer pushing a woman to the ground outside the New York immigration court on Sept. 25, 2025.
Following the video, the officer was relieved of duties and placed on administrative leave by DHS.
DHS spokesperson Tricia McLaughlin called the conduct unacceptable and said the agency is conducting a full investigation.
CBS reported and shared video of two separate recent incidents: the Sept. 25 shove of a woman and a separate incident in which ICE officers shoved journalists; the report presents video as primary evidence.
The CBS piece consolidating both incidents was filed by reporter Camilo Montoya-Galvez.
The incidents come amid increased ICE enforcement activity inside immigration courthouses and echo an August encounter in which an agent confronted a court observer.

Some X users defend the ICE officer's actions, arguing that the woman was harassing the agent and resisting, which necessitated the use of force, a viewpoint not addressed in mainstream reports that focus solely on the investigation and condemnation.
Posts on X highlight a pattern of ICE agents failing to produce identification or warrants during encounters, drawing parallels to previous incidents where agents allegedly assaulted U.S. citizens without justification, adding historical context missing from current mainstream coverage.
Critics on X emphasize concerns over press freedom, pointing out that shoving journalists could intimidate media coverage of immigration enforcement, a perspective on First Amendment implications not explored in the provided mainstream articles.
Several X users express frustration with perceived leniency toward ICE agents, noting instances where officers involved in similar shoving incidents quickly returned to work despite investigations, contrasting with mainstream emphasis on administrative leave.
Discussions on X include defenses of stricter immigration enforcement, with some users claiming that such incidents stem from resistance to lawful arrests, framing the events as necessary for public safety rather than excessive force as portrayed in mainstream media.
